Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is a dynamic website?
Dynamic sites are the ones where some action occurs, there is a functionality at stake that helps the site itself perform any action or actions without the intervention of a developer. Also, dynamic sites most often have administrative panels, where people with authorized access can perform a variety of actions such as creating content, uploading photos, files, etc., and they will be displayed on the public site for the end user.
2. What is the difference between a dynamic and static website?
For static sites, the price is lower, the production time is lower, but any action to be carried out on the information on the site itself must be changed by a programmer, respectively, any renewal or change requires an additional fee. In the case of dinimic sites, a logic is pre-set, what needs to be able to be created or modified by the admin panel, respectively, after the site has been created, no additional payment is required when performing the already agreed actions by the owners of the site.
3. What is a tailor made website?
A short or more customized site is one that is made to the exact requirements of the customers. Ready-made platforms such as WordPress, Shopify, Joomla, Magento, Opencart and others are not used. The custom site gives many advantages to its owners because it has unlimited opportunities for improvements, innovations, and offers much faster loading speed. There is no need to monitor various plugins, which are written by different people, it is not necessary to constantly update various integrated additions. Always short-term sites are the better choice when someone wants to create a brand and develop it for the future. It is no coincidence that the sites of the largest brands are not written on ready-made platforms, but use only custom (short-term) sites. It is essential how a company presents itself to its customers, and yet this is the face of the company and it is important that everything is at the highest level.
4. How much does it cost to create a website?
